D.C.) Gridiron Club (Washington

The Gridiron Club is not a single writer but a Washington, D.C., journalism institution. Founded in 1885, it is widely described as one of the city's oldest and most selective press organizations, with a long tradition of mixing reporting culture, politics, and satire.

The club is especially associated with its annual Gridiron Dinner, a famously off-the-record event where journalists and political figures trade jokes, songs, and mock theatrics. That same spirit carried into publications linked to the club, including light verse and humorous political pieces such as Mother Goose in Gridiron Rhyme.

Because this is a group author rather than an individual person, a reliable portrait-style author image was not clearly available from the sources I checked. For that reason, the profile image is left blank.
